Text: Hank Thompson. Sing Me Something Sentimental.
Sing me something sentimental
Make it anything that's blue
Sing it sweet and sing it tender
Just the way she used to do
If I cry take no attention
Every tear that falls is real
Sing me something sentimental
?Cause that's the way I feel
Sing it for somebody special
?Cause that's what she was to me
Where we used to sit together
Now, I sit alone you see
Seems like yesterday she loved me
But I guess it wasn't real
Sing me something sentimental
?Cause that's the way I feel
Sing me something sentimental
Just as though your heart could break
Since she's gone, my heart has taken
More than any heart should take
If you'll see her, say I love her
She's the one I'll always miss
Sing me something sentimental
Make every word a kiss
She was lovelier than ever
On the day she was his bride
As I stood and watched him kiss her
I fell all apart inside
Now, I realize I've lost her
Though it all seems so unreal
Sing me something sentimental
?Cause that's the way I feel
Make it anything that's blue
Sing it sweet and sing it tender
Just the way she used to do
If I cry take no attention
Every tear that falls is real
Sing me something sentimental
?Cause that's the way I feel
Sing it for somebody special
?Cause that's what she was to me
Where we used to sit together
Now, I sit alone you see
Seems like yesterday she loved me
But I guess it wasn't real
Sing me something sentimental
?Cause that's the way I feel
Sing me something sentimental
Just as though your heart could break
Since she's gone, my heart has taken
More than any heart should take
If you'll see her, say I love her
She's the one I'll always miss
Sing me something sentimental
Make every word a kiss
She was lovelier than ever
On the day she was his bride
As I stood and watched him kiss her
I fell all apart inside
Now, I realize I've lost her
Though it all seems so unreal
Sing me something sentimental
?Cause that's the way I feel
